Auto Bild Allrad: SUV Winter Tire Test R18 2024
Auto Bild Allrad, a respected automotive magazine, has recently conducted an extensive evaluation of winter tires, specifically for SUVs, in the size 225/60 R18. This test aimed to emphasize the crucial role of proper winter tires for safe driving in cold weather, challenging the common belief among many SUV owners that all-wheel drive is sufficient for winter conditions. The magazine highlighted that while all-wheel drive aids in starting and accelerating, the actual control during braking and cornering in winter heavily relies on the quality of the tires.
The test involved a diverse range of tire brands, covering both premium and mid-segment markets. This selection included renowned names like Bridgestone, Continental, Falken, Firestone, Goodyear, Hankook, Michelin, Pirelli, and Vredestein, along with the inclusion of Superia, a budget-friendly option.
